Vision Applications
Robust, high-performance desktop clients developed using the Ignition Vision module. Ideal for fixed operator stations, dual-monitor setups, and industrial control rooms.
// VISION DESKTOP RUNTIME ACTIVE
Dedicated Desktop Runtimes
The Vision module is a mature, robust, and highly reliable desktop runtime client. Unlike Perspective (which runs in web browsers), Vision launches as a local Java-based application, offering exceptionally fast execution, native local keyboard integrations, and complex multi-monitor support.
We do not position Vision as universally better or worse than Perspective. Instead, the specific requirements of your application determine the appropriate approach. Vision remains the preferred choice for fixed plant-floor operator terminals, dedicated process control consoles, and facilities with low-latency local area network (LAN) connections.
Key Features of Vision Clients
- Fixed Operator Stations: Fast local execution unaffected by browser version updates or local caching limits.
- Complex Multi-Monitor Support: Native multi-window layouts that span perfectly across two, three, or four control room display monitors.
- Historical Trend Charting: Extremely powerful, hardware-accelerated trend lines and database-driven data tables for immediate process comparison.
- Equipment Control & Alarms: Deep local hardware integration to communicate directly with peripheral devices like barcode scanners and receipt printers.
> Vision vs. Perspective
We help you evaluate which module fits your operational requirements:
- Fixed Control Stations Vision (Preferred)
